Hey, hey, hey. You ok? Sit down? Alexis:
Hmm, I'm ok, thank you. Patrick:
Post-chemo? Alexis:
It's a way of life. Patrick:
Yeah, "life" being the operative word. Alexis:
How are you? Patrick:
Stock answer or truth? Alexis:
Truth. Patrick:
Lousy. Alexis:
Robin? Patrick:
Yeah, she's still with Nikolas. Alexis:
So it seems. Patrick:
What, you don't believe it? Alexis:
Hmm, it doesn't feel right. Patrick:
Anything specific? Alexis:
They just don't have that look in their eyes when they look at each
other, you know? Or it could be my eyes -- you know, the chemo's
taking a toll on it. [Pager
beeps] [Patrick
sighs] Patrick:
I got to go. You going to be ok? Alexis:
I will. Patrick:
Ok. Listen, if -- uh -- if you notice something or if you can pinpoint
something that seems off between Nikolas and Robin, will you do
me a favor and let me know? Alexis:
I will, I promise. Patrick:
Thank you. Alexis:
You're welcome. Jax:
Hey. I thought I'd missed you. Alexis: What are you doing here? Jax:
I wanted to give you a ride home. Alexis:
Oh, that's nice. Thank you. Jax:
I also wanted to ask you if you would be my best person -- again
-- because Carly and I are getting married -- for real this time.
Alexis:
When? Jax:
Well, as -- as soon as Sonny, you know, signs the divorce papers
-- which could take a while. Alexis:
I assume -- I'm having a really big deja vu right now -- that you
still want to marry her?
Jax:
Of course I still want to marry her. Alexis:
You -- ok. I think I need to sit down for a little while, just to
get my strength back till I go home. Jax:
Ok. You sure? Alexis:
Oh, I'm positive. I -- I have Raul -- you know, my boyfriend. He'll
pick me up. Jax:
Ok. I couldn't help but notice you didn't give me an answer yet.
Alexis:
One hurdle at a time. Jax:
Well, it's an open invitation. I hope you accept it. See you. Alexis:
Hello, Raul. I'm ready to go home. Can you pick me up? Fine. We
need to stop one place before we go home, though. Sonny:
No, what -- I need you over here now. Things are getting out of
control. Jeez, it's like -- you all right? Alexis:
Mm-hmm. Sonny:
Sit down. Alexis:
Oh, boy -- chivalry, underworld style. Sonny:
What are you doing here? Alexis:
Well, it's important enough for me to come here straight from the
chemo -- I know you can't tell with the wig and all the makeup.
Sonny:
What has Ric done now? Alexis:
It's not Ric, it's the nicer ex -- Jax. Understand it or not, like
it or not, he loves Carly, and while I don't think that she's deserving
of such a dear, sweet man, he does. So I came here to ask you, please,
please sign the damn divorce papers so that he can get on with his
life and they can get married. Alexis:
A, it is not right to keep someone in a marriage when they no longer
want to be there, even if you think it's best for the children.
B, not a good idea to manipulate someone who loves you to try to
make them do something that you want them to do. Now, understand
that I don't think Carly is an innocent person and I wouldn't mind
it at all if she were hoisted by her own petard. But it's Jax's
heart, and he doesn't seem to mind having Carly hold it in her hands.
And thus, I must support him, even if it means coming here to reason
with you -- here, where the smell of those hazelnut lattes are making
me want to puke. Are you catching on, or do I need to keep going,
because I am wasting the breath from my beleaguered lungs that really
need to be kept in reserve. Sonny:
Did you say "pee-tard" or "pe-tard"? What does
that mean? Alexis:
Oh, God -- just sign the damn papers! Sonny:
I already did! Alexis:
What? Sonny:
Yeah, about an hour ago I signed the damn papers. Alexis:
Well, why didn't you say so? Sonny: Because I like to see you fired up about something -- even if it is Jax. And I do get a kick out of your advice sometimes.
Alexis: You also get a kick out of my enormous vocabulary that I love to lord over your head.
Sonny:
All right, I'll walk you out, and I'll have my driver take you home.
Alexis:
No need, I have Raul. Sonny:
And I'll buy you a hazelnut latte, you like that? Alexis:
You're a sadist. Sonny:
You know what? Alexis:
Hmm? Sonny:
Even though Jax doesn't deserve it, you are a good friend. Alexis: It goes along with being an ex. Sometimes they turn out to be your best friends. You never know -- maybe that'll happen with you and Carly.
